Title: 99mTc-labelled anti NCA-95 antibodies in prosthetic heart valve endocarditis. Author: Bair HJ, Becker W, Volkholz HJ, Wolf F. Journal: Nuklearmedizin; 1991 Aug; 30(4):149-50. PubMed ID: 1788081. Abstract: A 54-y old women with earlier replacement of the mitral and aortic valves and clinical signs of localized endocarditis was studied with 99mTc-labelled anti NCA-95 antibody. Whereas echocardiographic findings were negative, increased radionuclide uptake was observed left parasternal over the mitral valve as a sign of prosthetic valve endocarditis. This result could be confirmed by a similar study with leukocytes labelled in vitro with 111In-oxine.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
